Fortunately I've had the pleasure of using one along with my XE2. The AF is noticeably better than the XE2 I'll give you that. But my gripe with mirrorless (and Fuji in general) was that I couldn't even do something that my 6D and its archaic AF module could do, even after familiarizing myself with the system. And as I said before, for 90% of the shots I take, the XE2 is quick enough.
Don't get me wrong- I absolutely love Fuji and would never go back to a DSLR given I'm not a professional. I'd love to add an XT1 or whatever iteration comes next eventually, and their lenses are as good as any L lens I've used (maybe except the 70-200 2.8 mk2). But I'm just outlining some of the obvious drawbacks of moving to the system especially for someone like Euro who hasn't tried them before.
I do hope that the XE2 gets the FW4 AF updates though. Only a month or so until I find out.
As for batteries- I have 4 Wasabis, and they work as well as OEM if not better. I suspect that with 8hrs of shooting you'll need at least 3-4, if not more.
